Shirley McDonald Park

Very nice little pound with a bundle of cuteness. They are so friendly. Please feed responsibly: like bring some seeds, dry corn, etc. I love just sitting there and watching them napping around me.

There is a small covered playground, it's interesting and fun for kids though. Lake with ducks, trails. Feeding the ducks is so therapeutic!

There is another playground in the Meadow Olson park closeby, walking distance. We love Austin with it's connected trails and gorgeous parks! Beautiful area to discover.

The new bridge is a great spot to start on the trail. Plenty of covered parking with immediate trail access. Head up to the duck pond for a relaxing time at the playground or have a picnic.

The people were friendly but they are community conscious. Family oriented and defensive, in the preferred manner if you have young children in your care. If there's a problem here. Let it be shown your just passing through and check out the local church.

Great park to play, have a picnic and just relax.. Close by and walkable.. Can take cycle also..

Cute park to come and sit with some ducks. Also has a playground if you have kiddos, right off of the brushy creek trail.

Pretty place. Tried fishing but wasn't succesful.

A beautiful little park with a lot of life, many ducks and their eggs, snakes big and small, and turtles of all sizes! Love coming here to relax and take the stress away.

I enjoyed a nice long walk with my dog. The park is filled with walking and biking trails. There is also a pond ans you can feed the ducks.

Nice hidden gem on the Brushy Creek Regional Trail (BCRT). Pond with ducks and a playscape for kids.

Beautiful park to bring the kiddos and enjoy this beautiful Texas spring time. Especially great right now during COVID if you're looking for a place with no crowds, wide open spaces, and plenty of ducks to feed.

Quiet little park, picnic tables, playground, ducks, trails.

Really nice park, posts if ducks up feed!

What a find!
Rode my bike until the end of the rode, from Brush Creek Lake.
And there it was! This gem, hidden little place and lake!

Beautiful quaint park in just a lovely setting. Very nice sidewalks, benches near water and playground. Many ducks to interact with and fishing in pond is a delight. Not extremely crowded but has warm atmosphere perfect for family time or even a walking date.

Great place to take kids fishing

This is a nice duck pond, was surprised how lovely the place is.

Brushy Creek MUD does a great job with their parks. There's a sign that says "Don't bring bread for the ducks because it hurts their tummies", suggesting all kinds of bird seed, bags of frozen corn, etc instead. Great place to sit on a bench and talk with a friend.

The best time, in this summer heat, to walk is early. My daughter and I got started at 9:10 for a walk and stopped after we felt the heat. We had a good time. My only concern is the motorists that zoom by when the speed zone is 30 to 35 miles per hour. There is a speed increase as one heads closer to Cedar Park.

Great fishing spot for kids. Water is clear therefore making it easy to spot the fish.
